Oh that too.. I was waiting for someone to say that a ST can never beat any of those.. (which is true.. in a straight line)

I don't see the Buick Skylark in the list of cars you beat. Does that mean that that big thing beat you? If so, I would not doubt it. Those are some fast cars.

ALOT of cars beat me lol.. even a caddy sts beat me hard.. (he was in the 70s) The ones i beat are the Novices like me..

I need to practice looking ahead the track instead of just forward.. Im attending a Cone Clinic Course in November this year.. its like 50 bucks.. Much cheaper than the real driving schools!

Were might something like this be held? I was going to go to driving school this summer, but it was around $750, and I decided against it due to price. PM me with the details of that thing if you wouldn't mind. It's always good to learn more about driving.

How'd you beat a Miata? That doesn't sound right...could the person not drive?

JDG, do me a favor,
add the fact that this was at an autox in the title, makes for better search results, and lets everyone know this is NOT a streetracing thread smile.gif

Akimbo- The driver in the miata is also a novice.. I believe it was their first time like me. Also I think that was their first time in a Miata.. they had to learn that a gas pedal is an on/off for those cars

BigmeanBull -The Cone Clinic is going to be around my area. Not much info has been given out yet. But more info is located in autocross.us under TSCC

Presure- Done
